Brie Larson and chef Courtney McBroom released their first cookbook, Party People, on Oct. 21, filled with recipes and entertaining tips designed to make hosting easy and fun
Larson told PEOPLE that the duo already has material for "solidly two" more books, as several chapters and ideas were cut from their debut
The pair's partnership began when McBroom worked as a food consultant on Larson's Apple TV+ series Lessons in Chemistry, inspiring their collaboration on Party People
Brie Larson and best friend Courtney McBroom made their splash into the cookbook world with the release of Party People on Oct. 21, ripe with recipes and party-hosting hacks and tips to turn your next gathering in to an all-around good time.
But according to Larson, this certainly won't be the last endeavor from the pair.
Speaking with PEOPLE at Better Homes & Gardens' Red Plaid Café pop-up in New York City on Oct. 17, Larson explained that there were many recipes and tips that didn't make the cut — which only serve as more content for another book or two.
"We have full chapters that are left. That was the hardest part, was there's so many different ways to party and trying to finagle that," she told PEOPLE, explaining that this first book was the pair's "101" and genera base. "But there's so much more. And so we already have... Well, we have, I'd say solidly two books already figured out."
McBroom added, "I don't know which one we do next, assuming we'd get that opportunity, but we have a lot of ideas."

Party People: A Cookbook for Creative Celebrations by Brie Larson and Courtney McBroom
PEOPLE exclusively revealed the cover for Party People in May.
"It doesn't have to be hard. You don't have to do a ton of work to bring all of your friends together and your loved ones and to surround yourself with community," McBroom said at the time. "And that was one of the main things we wanted to do, is make sure we were helping people do that."
The Oscar winner and the former Milk Bar culinary director first collaborated professionally when McBroom served as a food consultant on Lessons in Chemistry, the AppleTV+ series that Larson stars in.
It was that collaboration and joint professional experience that prompted the creation of Party People.
"We talked amongst ourselves. It came out of working together on Lessons in Chemistry and really enjoying that process because it was a similar, it's kind of similar to the cookbook in that we had to talk about, 'Okay, this is the story we're telling in the show. This is the scene. Courtney, what food do you think would work for that?' And so we were having this back and forth and telling a story through food, and meanwhile, we throw a lot of parties naturally in our life, and so in thinking about what we could do together, it felt like the perfect melds of what both of us are good at," Larson said.
Party People is available now.
